Supercharge my motor
I was wondering if it is possible to supercharge my V10 Ford engine? I want more power when towing up hills.

There are companies who will change to a diesel. Your rear end being designed for a MH will handle a diesel as long as you don't increase the weight and load too much.
The older Ford International diesel,the 7.4, not the 6.0 will last forever. I had my 02 chipped and it ran like a drag car in tow setting without the fifth wheel It made the check engine light come on but it was now worry. Some years had stronger rods but not a worry unless your are going to drag race.
Find an old Ford F350 or better yet F450 or heavier and change out. Might have to freshen and new hoses etc. The old Manual trans won't break. The Ford auto transmission with that engine torque converter would unlock and wear the clutch. Have the trans and torque converter updated etc.
Use the rear end with the F350/450 etc if heavier. Ask good Ford Mechanic about load ratings etc. It's been a while.
